How does the vaccine mandate affect mobilization?
Today our guest is Jeff Boesel. After graduating from Westmont College and getting married, Jeff managed a restaurant, worked in a warehouse, and then became an air traffic controller before serving as a missionary at age 36. Jeff currently serves the One Challenge mobilization center as the Director of Mobilization.
Regardless of opinion on this hot button issue, this episode hopes to encourage you to look at the vaccine not from a political point of view, but rather a biblical one. Dave and Jeff discuss the fact that the world is watching how organizations handle Covid-19 vaccine mandates. As individuals and organizations continue to navigate this difficult situation, it’s important to dialogue on this topic in healthy and constructive ways.
Questions Discussed:
- Let's talk about IMBs decision to require the vaccine for all of their missionaries.
- The Brigada newsletter has also addressed this topic. What have been some of the reactions?
- What feedback have you heard since the news broke about IMB's requirement?
- Do you know of other agencies (besides IMB) who are mandating the vaccine?
- Unfortunately this has become a political hot button topic. How do we keep things biblical?
- Do you think some missionaries will resign because of this requirement?
- Will we see a decline in new missionaries going to the field due to the mandate?
